Vintage Oxford wall speaker from around 1940/50 era, 6" speaker, 2.5 watt amp, on/off volume, input jack, led on/off, 9 volt battery compartment. I routed the back out to accept the 1/4" back. Sounds awesome, has a real deep tone, I have two of them, they were hanging in an old tavern for many years as the speaker cloth is smoke tinted.

Thanks Carl, I'm working on getting myself up to speed so to speak in the video department. Being somewhat technologilcally challenged as I am, it is not easy for me to do :-(
That is so SWEEET! It took me a while, but I remember something like that hanging on the walls of my elementary school. (Without that lovely smoke patina!) Howzit sound? Can you post a demo?
Thanks John, seems like I have CBG overload to the brainpan anymore when I'm out and about. Everything I see becomes an amp or guitar in my eyes. I think I need some professional help ;-)
I haven't heard anything on river levels yet, they're still running 35,500 cubic feet per second at Gavins Point, all 5 dams upstream with the exception of Big Ben have cut back though so it wouldn't surprise me to see a low river this winter.
Thanks everyone!!! Well I didn't get started on the 2nd speaker tonight as I spent the evening at my 3rd Thanksgiving dinner in 2 days. Boy am I tired for some reason :-)

You know, I recall seeing these when I visited. I TOTALLY missed the potential. Good eye and good idea.
I hear the river flow is going to be cut WAY down for the winter.
Oh, lordy, that's nice!

WOW! That is a beauty!
Nice! It looks like it spent the first 60+ years of it's life just waiting around to become an amp. Perfect!
